3INTRODUCTION 1
ROAD ANGELTM PURE is a standalone GPS camera and accident blackspot locator. It uses the latest global positioning satellite technology to give you audible and visible alerts as you approach hazardous sections of road:
• Fixed safety cameras • Bus Lane cameras • Average speed monitoring zones • Mobile safety camera vans • Accident blackspots (as designated by the Police and Local Authorities) • Mobile laser guns • Primary schools, congestion charging zones and unprotected level crossings • Snap to road technology
With over 250,000 miles of road around the UK, knowing the speed limit is often guesswork, that’s why ROAD ANGELTM PURE also has an onboard database of road speed limits. Provided by Here™, the road speed information is presented in a circular road speed sign at the bottom left of the device.
